Royal Challengers Bangalore and Gujarat Lions will have contrasting goals when they step out Saturday afternoon at Chinnaswamy Stadium. While a win will keep Kohli's RCB in fray for a playoff berth, the Lions will seal a spot in the last four with two full points.
ÂÂ
It will be a tough road for RCB from here on. Although Kohli said he "loves" to be in this kind of situation, the RCB will need his teammates to fire on a big day. That means Chris Gayle needs to justify his inclusion and the bowlers need to control things.
ÂÂ
The last time Gujarat Lions and Royal Challengers Bangalore met in Rajkot, GL chased down RCB's 180 for 2 with ease. The Lions won by six wickets, with crucial contributions from the top order.
ÂÂ
Playing his first game, West Indian Dwayne Smith hit 32 off 21 balls and Brendon McCullum scored 42 off only 24 balls to maintain a speedy run-rate.
ÂÂ
A 40-run stand between McCullum and Raina and a 53-run partnership for the third wicket between Dinesh Karthik (50 not out) and the Gujarat skipper took the Lions to the brink of victory.
ÂÂ
Kohli's unbeaten 100 went in vain against GL. India's Test captain has been in stunning form, but ironically enough the results haven't gone RCB's way.
ÂÂ
GL will be without Suresh Raina on Saturday. But that should not worry the Lions camp. McCullum will surely lead the way both with his batting and leadership skills.
